False flag? au.v4.download.windowsupdate.com dloaded by svchost.exe
« on: January 14, 2015, 03:08:30 PM »
While just viewing my regular facebook feed, I got a warning that popped up.  I took a screen snag of it.  I wasn't downloading anything at the time.  In fact, I had just turned on my computer for the day.

Is this a false flag or a problem?



Thanks!

reputation warnings are not false .... as it say, a very new or very rare file

suspicious files can be checked here  www.virustotal.com  /  www.metascan-online.com
if tested before, click new scan for a fresh result
